Battle Scars

Double 180 gram vinyl LP pressing includes digital download. With bristling energy unflagging virtuosity and lyrics that cut to the core of human hope and willpower Walter Trout s album Battle Scars chronicles his horrific battle with liver failure. But the 12-song set captures the international guitar hero on a new high - playing and singing at the peak of his abilities infusing even his darkest numbers with creative joy that sweeps like a beacon. Battle Scars is Trout s 18th album released by the Netherlands-based Provogue label and his 42nd overall counting his pre-solo-career recordings as a member of the historic groups: Canned Heat and John Mayall s Bluesbreakers.
